Eleanor Irene Beck has arrived!






3/3/09 at Canton-Potsdam hospital.

Dave and I are the happy parents of a baby girl! Eleanor Irene Beck was born in Potsdam, NY on March 3rd at 1:46 p.m. after a 15 hour labor with no complications. She shares her birthday with her Great Aunt Marilynn Erickson and her late Great Grandfather David Karlen Bennett. She weighed 6 pounds, 12 oz and was 20-21 inches long depending on multiple measurements. We feel incredibly blessed to have been given such a healthy baby and cannot wait to get to know her as the days and weeks go by. We know already (based on her exuberant vocalizations) that she's a rather passionate person, and have noticed she's inherited her dad's furrowed brow which she uses to make a range of expressions such as 'the Godfather' and the 'deeply considering' look. Her wild facial expression are giving us little glimpses into her blooming personality.

We hope that this blog will keep you up to date on Eleanor's development and activities!
